In a statement, the Federal Trade Commission accuses Facebook of engaging in \"unfair and deceptive practices.\" The commission cited altogether eight wrongdoings about Facebook. One of which said, the company, without informing its users, made their private data public online. It did not impose fines on the company, nor did it say the company broke the law.
